Chapter 197 &x2013; Moretta
Evidently, the X-ray Eye was no ordinary stuff Even Fatty&x2019;s Appraisal couldn&x2019;t assess it &x201C;Could this be another remnant of a Divine item?&x201D; he wondered
He felt it necessary to return to the city and have the Eye appraised Also, digging blindly like this was unwise
Fatty returned to the Imperial Capital The master appraiser Fatty found wasn&x2019;t particularly impressed with the item; but, it was unclear whether that was because the city&x2019;s masters ell-versed in their trade or the level of the X-ray Eye was lower than the Spatial Spoon With a bland &x201C;not bad,&x201D; the appraiser pronounced a fee of 30,000 gold coins
30,000 was less than the Spoon&x2019;s appraisal fee of 50,000, so Fatty deduced that the Eye was just so-so
Taking the money, the appraiser waved a hand above the eye A black and white light strea pair of eyes above the ites
&x201C;A great item Take it&x201D; The appraiser tossed the X-ray Eye to Fatty and closed his eyes to rest
Receiving the info as soon as he got the Eye, Fatty didn&x2019;t bother the lukewarer
X-ray Eye: A re within a ten-meter radius Can be used three times a day for ten seconds at a tiain While this Eye was inferior to the Spatial Spoon (which allowed the user to hide inside a separate diht for Fatty What else could h places to find all the good stuff?
Fortunately, when Fatty had closed in on the Graverobber earlier, it hadn&x2019;t been using the X-ray Eye; otherwise, no one would have been able to sneak up on it
Fatty equipped the Eye without delay and raced his Skeletal Dragon back to the graveyard Using Stealth to lose the herd ofhim, Fatty approached a random burial He opened his skill bar and located the &x201C;X-ray&x201D; skill
&x201C;X-ray&x201D; Fatty pointed slightly With a whoosh, two rays of light, invisible to others, shot frorave was pitch blackness and apparently no sign of a Holy Spirit Stone Fatty hurriedly turned his eyes to another grave nearby
This grave was just as ghastly, but revealed a faint white light within While the gloas feeble, it was a tenacious existence that stubbornly dispelled the darkness around it
Holy Spirit Stone! Only the light of a Holy Spirit Stone could possess such charrave, instead directing his gaze to another one
After repeating the process for another six graves, the effect of the X-ray Eye wore off, but Fatty had discovered two graves that held Holy Spirit Stones
&x201C;Wheat, let&x2019;s get to work&x201D; Fatty excitedly swung the Soil-Rotting Sharp Pickaxe, and thus his grand grave-digging career began
Having slayed a monster, Fatty cradled and caressed t Holy Spirit Stones &x201C;OK, two ain&x201D; He placed the But, this tiood The ten seconds of X-ray didn&x2019;t find hiht
&x201C;Again&x201D; Already satisfied with two precious stones, the elementalist wasn&x2019;t disheartened He used the X-ray skill again on a pretty elaborate burial The grave o or three ti inside was of quite a high rank
When the two X-ray rays fell on the grave, Fatty was surprise that they couldn&x2019;t pierce the soil layer to let him see the inside
He ruminated for a bit He&x2019;d used up his three chances to use the X-ray skill for the day, and two stones were already quite a harvest Fatty decided against searching haphazardly and sirave
A man of action, Fatty co aith the Sharp Pickaxe After a while, he hollowed out a hole
He wondered who the big brass hoa twenty-odd- tunnel to access the interior
&x201C;If you don&x2019;t have anything good, hmph, this Lord Fatty will flay your corpse!&x201D; Fatty harrumphed He lit a torch and jumped inside the crypt
The burial chath more than ten meters The floor was tiled with exceptionally flat and shi+ny limestone In the very center, a coffin was surrounded by a few useless burial objects, so Fatty was too lazy to bother with them
He went up to the coffin and knocked on it Surprisingly, unlike all the wooden caskets before, the container was ical runes that were still apparently effective, given the sparkling light running through them
&x201C;Overthrow the rich and powerful1!&x201D; Fatty sung the slogan, then took out his pickaxe and pried at the casket lid
The coffin was, indeed, different froical runes shi+elded it froe; however, their effect had di time Fatty attacked only briefly before the runes flickered and completely crumbled
Boom! The instant the runes collapsed, a rumble echoed from the box The next second, the entire coffin violently quaked, as if so&x2019;s definitely off about this&x201D; The elementalist quickly retreated and constructed several traps around the coffin
Creak&x2026; creak! A noise sounded from the coffin; and, all of a sudden, the lid rotated A pair of pitch black arrabbed the lid and hurled it away
